Strangers in the House 1942

Loursat, a brilliant lawyer, shares a looming, expansive bourgeois house with his daughter Nicole. After his wife abandoned him almost twenty years ago, he has descended into alcoholism, leaving his bond with Nicole virtually nonexistent. When the body of an unknown man is found inside the mansion, police immediately focus on Nicole, who spends time with a group of bored youths that steal cars and other items for thrills.
